What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Milwaukee, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Oct 7, 12:48 AM CDT, 2 hours 38 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 7, 12:48 AM CDT, 2 hours 38 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI 1248 AM CDT Sun Oct 7 2018 .UPDATE... Area of showers may move northeast through parts of the area after 09Z today, though they may be more widely scattered by the time they reach the area. Scattered showers should occur on and off today. More concentrated area of showers should move through the area tonight, with some elevated convection later tonight, as the low level jet nose points into the region. May see locally heavy rainfall with these showers and storms. && .AVIATION(06Z TAFS)... MVFR ceilings may vary with VFR for a few hours overnight, before filling in by 09Z or 10Z today. Scattered showers should slide northeast through the area after 09Z today, continuing at times through the day. Ceilings will gradually lower to IFR category this morning, lingering into this afternoon. They will lower further to LIFR tonight, as a more organized area of showers moves through. Some thunderstorms may move through later tonight as well, producing locally heavy rainfall. Visibility values should be VFR until the afternoon, when 2 to 4 mile values are expected. They may lower to 1 to 2 miles later tonight. Winds will be steady out of the northeast into today, becoming east to southeast later tonight. && .PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 903 PM CDT Sat Oct 6 2018) UPDATE... Updated PoPs to hold off on any rainfall until after midnight, when better moisture returns to the area. Lift is still on the weak side, so not expecting anything more than just light showers. MARINE... Winds will become northeasterly across the lake overnight, and then easterly through much of Sunday. Waves will approach small craft levels in the nearshore Sunday into Sunday evening, but held off on an advisory for now as heights are marginal. A warm front will lift from south to north across the lake Sunday night and Monday, with winds becoming southerly behind the front. Southerly flow will persist until mid week, when a strong area of low pressure and associated cold front move through the region. This will bring a period of higher waves and potentially gale force winds to Lake Michigan during the mid to late week timeframe. PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 618 PM CDT Sat Oct 6 2018) AVIATION(00Z TAFS)... MVFR ceilings will persist this evening. A few brief breaks to VFR are possible, though will be very transient. Ceilings are expected to fall to IFR overnight, with occasional light rain showers. IFR will continue through the day Sunday. Winds will initially be north to northeast this evening, becoming easterly on Sunday. PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 253 PM CDT Sat Oct 6 2018) SHORT TERM... TONIGHT AND SUNDAY - Confidence...medium. While northwest winds at the surface continue to bring in slightly drier air in the low levels, persistent southwest steering flow at the mid-levels will cause mid-level moisture to remain over southern WI through Sunday. Precipitable water remains in the 1-1.5 inch range before rapidly increasing once again late Sunday into Sunday night. Any amount of weak forcing may set off light showers across southern WI tonight and Sunday as low level baroclinic zone and thermal ribbon will linger across southern WI/northern Il through Sunday morning. Once these ongoing light showers over southern CWA slide off to the east, thinking mostly dry conditions can be expected this evening, especially in the north. Shower chances increase later tonight into Sunday morning as weak warm air advection commences, with the best chance in the afternoon as deeper moisture begins to return along with a stronger mid-level short wave moving into the area from the south. Hence highest pops of 60% or better reserved for late Sunday. Steered away from NAM solution for these periods as was unsure where it was arriving at the stronger synoptic lift and frontogenetical forcing sliding into southern WI late tonight into Sunday morning. As a result, it produced higher QPF over the area with a narrow swath over 1" in the south. Trended to a much lighter QPF using WPC/ECMWF/GFS/GEM blend. Thunder threat looks minimal during the period, but will continue small threat in the far south late Sunday as synoptic scale and moisture return rapidly increase. LONG TERM... Sunday night through Tuesday... Forecast confidence is medium. 925-850mb warm air advection and surface frontogenesis will the the focus for showers and thunderstorms Sunday night. The area most favorable for the heavier precip is south central WI into central WI during the late evening as the front is on the move. By Monday morning, Southern WI will be in the warm sector with a southerly breeze as surface low pressure trough extends from southern MN through central WI. Southeast WI will have the best chance of dry weather Monday afternoon through Tuesday, and highs will likely reach the lower 80s there. Precip chances toward the Dells are more uncertain and more likely as they will be closer to the front. Models are showing that front to be a little more northwest than yesterday, so there is a better chance for dry weather. The atmosphere will be very moist with weak instability, so we can't rule out scattered showers and some thunder at any time while we're in the warm sector. Wednesday through Friday... Forecast confidence is medium. The upper trough begin to wedge into the Upper Midwest on Wednesday and help to push the surface trough across the Upper Great Lakes. Showers and thundestorms are likely just ahead of and along the cold front which will likely cross WI from west to east Wed afternoon. We will be breezy and cooler on Thursday. Friday and Beyond... Forecast confidence is medium. A shortwave trough tracking across the center of the country will bring our next chance for showers to southern WI on Fri per the GFS. The ECMWF keeps that system farther south. We might get into a dry ridging pattern by early the following week. && .MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...None.
